So get over it, and abortion is murder!
Yes, let's make the mothers suffer, whatever age they may be, and also allow them to bear lifelong stress and mental breakdown due to having to raise the child of someone who violently abused them!

If you were raped you didn't decide to have a child.

No no.

This is where you lost it.

A raped woman has no choice in getting pregnant.

A pregnant woman has a choice in aborting a child.

No one is forcing the woman to regret aborting a pregnancy. That's her own choice.

You know, this place is called America. This wasn't Iran last I checked. Women are still allowed to make their own choices.

How many women were raped after Katrina? Of those, how many were impregnated? It seems that this argument is moot.

Why? It's just a guy offering free abortions in case you fit into the above category. If no one was impregnated, there won't be any free abortions and everyone can go home happy.

I think the point is there will be "retroactive birth control" abortions that are being provided that upsets people.

It is still none of your business.

And you do not know any of those women who have to go through this.

You do not live in the real world and you have a very shelter life.

You are judgemental and not a very good human being.

You do not care about the women and the situations you might be in.

Unless you know the hundred of thousand of women who have to get an abortion and unless you have 10 to 15 children you have adopted or any children you have given up for adoption you do not know what you are talking about.

You do not care or give a damn about a women that is intelligent that can take decisions on her own and is in a bad situation.

Are you going to be there to pick up the pieces of any women who is forced on a table where you are going to rip a child out of her body and forced her give it up for adoption.

Are you going to be there when she has a nervous breakdown when she cannot take it anymore because a child grew up in her and because of you she has to give it up.

You do not know the pain of having to give up a child for adoption, you do not care or give a damn; only little minds will insult me because I actually care about these women.

And the fact that some of the women regret their choice of having an abortion is due to the ignorance of people like you who points fingers who think they are so perfect and do not give a damn or care about them.

You call them names, you judge them, you have no love for them, and you never never make any efforts to understand or care about them.

When was the last time did you actually open your heart or talk objectivly to one of those women who had to have an abortion.

Do yo really know any women who had an abortion for sport.

I do not know any and contrary to you have a heart.

By the way, I don't have a high opinion of any woman who chooses abortion - for any reason. I believe there is no lower form of human life. I despise them - and will not waste my time here on Earth trying to "understand" their feelings. Just as I don't try to understand axe murderers.

There are things that are inherently wrong. To attempt to justify them is pointless.

But there's light at the end of the tunnel. Legalized abortion will very soon be a thing of the past here in America.

While, strangely enough, I agree that abortion is wrong, I'm not holding my breath waiting for it to become illegal again. You have to remember that this country is fairly evenly split on many issues, and the screaming you're hearing from the very far right is still a minority, which makes it screaming at best.
Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

And there would be an avalanche of women mutilating themselves so not to bring an unwanted pregnancy to term and many will die. That should make you a happy conservative.

Never doubt the determination of a woman that cannot carry a pregnancy to term; you live in a perfect world I live with my sisters a human one.

Or many will go to Canada and get one, Mexico, anywhere where a woman's decision will be respected and men do not think they cannot think for themselves.

Maybe Conservative women need a man to take decisions for them but Liberal women do not need one to tell them what to do with their bodies.

I guess the next sentence out of the mouth of conservative will be an insult, I guess you guy cannot respect anything.

If this were true (which it is not) then I would be more concerned with the endemic mental health issues of women who would rather self-mutilate and risk death than give life. Why don't you care about the mental state of your "sisters"?

Never doubt the determination of a woman that cannot carry a pregnancy to term; you live in a perfect world I live with my sisters a human one.
You say "cannot", don't you mean "is not willing"? If they "cannot" then that is a medical decision to be determined by a doctor, not a personal choice.

…anywhere where a woman's decision will be respected and men do not think they cannot think for themselves…Maybe Conservative women need a man to take decisions for them but Liberal women do not need one to tell them what to do with their bodies…many will die. That should make you a happy conservative

Considering your irrational hatred for what you THINK a conservative is, why shouldn't you be insulted? You spout untrue, hateful garbage at them every chance you get.

Too bad the statistics prove you're only talking about 8.5% of abortions obtained, isn't it? Go back and read my earlier post. Those are the reasons given by the women actually havin the abortions. It translates to someting like 150 abortiones a year for your "justification."

Considering your so-called "avalanche" did not occur in the years and years and years preceeding Roe V Wade, I think perhaps you are in over your head, once again.

Yes I am concerned by the mental health of my sisters this is why I want them to still be able to get a safe abortion not a back alley one.

And would you know what women went through before Roe vs Wade you never care abouth women's health issue before why would you learn about and have compassion this is not you.

Just one tiny fact there were million of women in the past that would end up in hospital with gynaelogical problems because of back alley abortions. And when abortions will be illegal again because of conservatives that do not care about them, then it is going to be the same thing again and again; until well I hope some people with sense get back in power.

It is more devastating to give a child in adoption than a woman who has an abortion when she is 6 to 8 weeks pregnant.

When was the last time did you give some support to a woman who is depressed about giving up her child in adoption or is she according to you conservatives such dirt because she made a mistake that you shune her.

And how many children did you adopt lately? How many older children with no family did you mentor lately.

Thank God for that doctor that cares enough to give some free abortions for a little while.

I don't actually know any. Everyone I know actually takes care of their children. It must be horrible to be a part of a gender that can so often just get knocked up and give away or destroy the life they create willy nilly. Must be devastating to live with herself after that. as a man I just can't relate I admit.

Well, I haven't adopted any, you got me there. You see, I have two children of my own. I knocked up my girlfriend (who comes from a strict family) when I was 19 and she was 21. Instead of sucking the life out of her womb and discarding it as random medical waste we took responsibility for our own screw up and are currently raising her (and her little brother of course). You know, like decent people should, nurturing type stuff (you wouldn't understand, there's this thing called love…ah, never mind). That was 14 years ago.

And don't for a second think that I am against adoption, my brother was adopted.

None. Zero. Zip. I am busy RAISING MY OWN. Just like those that threw away their kid like an unwanted puppy should have done.

I agree there, judging by the pictures I saw of Katrina victims, any kids born wouldn't have any hope of getting any food away from Mamma! They'd starve!

I thought it was shown that there weren't the rapes that were reported in the Katrina aftermath. No one is saying women can't have abortions. Many people believe they shouldn't be used as retroactive birth control.

Not a single confirmed case, not a single confirmed eye witness…according to the NOLA police commissioner anyway.

And just maybe you missed the multiple posts that show all those "rapes" were in fact BS thrown up for publicity? The NO Police Department says they have found no evidence proving a single rape accusation.

But, of course, that ruins your entire argument, huh?

If there are no rape victims then there will be no abortions making this argument entirely redundant.

Lies about being raped in order to get on TV and sensasationalize somehow makes you believe they won't do the same for a free abortion? Puh-lease.

Huh? I'm saying that this doctor is offering free abortions to whomever may have been raped.

No one raped = no free abortions.

If one wants to claim they were raped, then thats a different discussion about honesty.

That's not what is says in the original article. It says 6 abortions had already been completed.

LITTLE ROCK -- Storm refugees in Arkansas who need an abortion can have the procedure done for free at a Little Rock clinic where a doctor has said he has already performed six free of charge and will continue to do so for those displaced by Hurricane Katrina.

Sad thing is, usually in hard times child birth rates go up. That means that these bloated welfare heifers will have EVEN MORE children.
